hairtallshergrove

call it whatever you want.....tallshergrove, sherhairlly, hairshertall.......this has been the week of hangin' with the fam. or "fams" that is. it seems like we've spent pretty much every day since wednesday with the tally-sherf-hairgrove connection, and guys.....i'm pretty stinkin' tired of ya! hahaha....totally kidding. it's been pretty fun. i'm sure people think we must hang out all the time (and really my sister and i do), but the whole fam getting together doesn't happen as much b/c usually everyone's pretty busy. especially around the holidays, vb season...life's busy.

right now, my dad and nathan are in the basement putting up a wall. that's right. we're "finishing" our basement. i say "finishing" b/c we're doing just one large room and the rest will be pretty basementy still, but it will only be for storage and laundry. the large room is for the little man's toys, and for playing. it's going up in stages, so we can pay for it appropriately. so christmas money bought all the wood, and next we're going to do some more ebaying to get rid of some of the JUNK that doesn't deserve a home in our new storage section. they were also working on this last night, which ended up being another family get together since my parents were watching ava so mike and nic could paint their bathroom. they came over for pizza.

thursday was a home vb game and everybody came. of course, they could have cared less about the game and only really came to see the kids.

we look pretty good, dad

hey, granny b....dillon's up there!

auntie nic, my teeth are bothering me.

MICHAEL!!!! i knew i shouldn't have let him hold the camera

ava's face just says, "i'm planning something big!"

ok, grampa this is boring. why can't we play with the ball?

i think they need to get her out of the city....little thug.

so sweet. giving kisses.

ok, dad, it's past my bedtime. can we go home now?
